Publisher Skybound Games and developer Nice Dream, a Los Angeles-based studio founded by the co-creators of Before Your Eyes, have announced Goodnight Universe, a narrative adventure game in which you play as a six-month-old baby with psychic abilities. Platforms and a release date were not announced. The game will take part in Tribeca Games Festival 2024 from June 12 to 16.
Here is an overview of the game, via Skybound Games:
“The success of Before Your Eyes showed us that there is an audience of like-minded people out there who seek out games to emotionally engage them in ways other mediums simply can’t,” said Nice Dream co-founder Graham Parkes in a press release. “We founded Nice Dream Games to continue to make games for that audience, which push the limits of what interactive storytelling can do.”
Skybound Gamges managing partner Ian Howe added, “We are so excited to work with Graham [Parkes] and Oliver [Lewin] and the talented team behind Nice Dream Games again. We are incredible admirers of their creative use of technology to deliver first-of-its-kind gaming experiences. Both Skybound and Nice Dream are dedicated to bringing compelling stories to everyone and feel that interactive entertainment is a medium capable of conveying powerful stories that can’t be told any other way. Before Your Eyes is a prime example of this, and Goodnight Universe is shaping up to be yet another boundary-breaking video game.”
